In light of the recent UBS report suggesting the world’s banks are still at risk of far larger writedowns on investments tied to the U.S. subprime mortgage market, Dr. Louis Gagnon, associate professor at the Queen’s School of Business, is available for comment.
In addition to his expertise in risk management, capital markets and international finance, Dr. Gagnon is uniquely well positioned to discuss this issue based on his experience at one of Canada’s largest banks where he lead a team overseeing global interest rate derivatives risk exposures.
